Surrounded by lush trees and pachysandra, Lake Manse has a unique combination of oval and herringbone style cobbles
The Main House at Lake Manse is a cobblestone home that was built in the early 1840’s by Nathaniel Lake, completed in 1846. Situated on 7.8 acres along the historic Erie Canal, the exterior of the house is a unique combination of small round and oval cobbles laid five courses to the quoin height, and a lower area of herringbone cobbles. The mortar joints are beaded, and the side friezes have cast iron grills. The quoins and the step areas are sandstone. Total living area is 2,280 sq. ft.
New high efficiency propane furnace, ducting and water heater installed Sept, 2011.
There are six outbuildings including an 1865 stone smokehouse and a restored two story stone barn. The grounds include a 44 x 20 inground pool.
